What It's Like Being an ASIAN RUSSIAN in CHINA

亚裔俄罗斯人在中国生活是什么感觉？

Do you know where I am from? In this video, I share my feeling and experiences being an Asian Russian in China.

I am living in China and many people think that I am Chinese but actually I am from Russia. Also, many people ask me in the comments about where I am from and so I thought I would make this video to explain more about Sakha, the different republics and regions and ethnicities of Russia, and some experiences I've had.

你们知道我来自哪里吗？分享我作为亚裔俄罗斯人在中国的感受和经历。

我住在中国，很多人认为我是中国人，但实际上我来自俄罗斯。也有很多人在评论区问我来自哪里，我来自萨哈，俄罗斯的一个共和国、地区和种族，我的一些经历。

以下是Youtube网友的评论：

I'm from Kazakhstan and I have a funny story from my friend. Here in Kazakhstan we have a lot of Koreans as a result of deportation in Soviet Union. Mostly they speak Russian and have Russian names with Korean surname. So, two Kazakhstani Koreans were in a holiday trip in the USA. They were speaking Russian between each other, and one local approached them to ask what language were they speaking. They answered it was Russian. He then asked: so, you are Russians? They answered they were from Kazakhstan. And he said: so, you are Kazakhs? They answered: no, we are Koreans. And it blew that guy's mind. Two Koreans from Kazakhstan were speaking Russian in the USA :)

我来自哈萨克斯坦，我的朋友给我讲了一个有趣的故事。在哈萨克斯坦，有很多被苏联驱逐出境的韩国人。他们大多说俄语，俄罗斯名字+韩国姓氏。两名哈萨克斯坦韩国人在美国度假。他们用俄语交谈，一个当地人走近他们，问他们说的是什么语言。他们回答是俄语。他接着问：那你们是俄罗斯人？他们回答说他们来自哈萨克斯坦。他说：那你们是哈萨克人？他们回答说:“不，我们是韩国人。”这让那个人大吃一惊。两个来自哈萨克斯坦的韩国人在美国说着俄语。

When I was a student in China, I used to play dota quite a lot in a game club near campus. There was a guy who always sat near me and we played dota together for a few times. He looks like Chinese and talks like native Chinese with a little northwestern accent so I thought he might be a student from northwestern part of China. As we were getting close, I noticed he likes visiting Russian websites. “Are you learning Russian?” “No, I’m from Russia”.

我在中国上学的时候，经常在学校附近的一个游戏俱乐部玩dota。有个家伙总是坐在我旁边，我们一起玩了几次dota。他长得像中国人，说话也像中国人，有点西北口音，所以我以为他可能是来自中国西北部。当我们更熟后，我注意到他喜欢访问俄罗斯网站，我问：“你在学俄语吗?”他回答：“不，我来自俄罗斯。”

As a Mexcan who started learning Russian a couple of months ago I felt a little ignorant for not knowing there were Asians native to Russia. But now that I know that even some Russians ignore this, I feel a lot better about myself.

作为一个几个月前开始学习俄语的墨西哥人，我感到有点无知，因为我不知道俄罗斯有土生土长的亚裔。但现在我知道即使是一些俄罗斯人也忽略了这一点，我自己感觉好多了。

If you remind people of how HUGE Russia is, and that part of it is in ASIA, it shouldn't be that hard to understand.

如果你提醒人们俄罗斯的面积有多大，而且它的一部分在亚洲，那就不难理解了。

I’m an American. I find Russia and your culture fascinating. I really admire how you all work together to survive and how everything is fresh and healthy. It’s neat to see how diverse Russia is. Thank you sharing about yourself and for these videos Yakutia (hopefully I spelled that correctly). You are a beautiful person with a diverse and unique background.

我是美国人。我觉得俄罗斯和俄罗斯文化很迷人。我真的很钦佩你们一起努力生存，一切都是新鲜、健康的。很高兴看到俄罗斯的多样性。感谢你的分享。你是一个美丽的人，有着多元而独特的背景。

I'm Sakha living in Italy and I faced a lot of funny reactions when I told Italians I'm from Russia similar to yours. But after few years it stops to be funny and just makes you feel sad about people's ignorance. The worst situation that happened to me was on the passport control at the airport when the officer told I couldn't be Russian and my passport was fake

我是萨哈人，住在意大利，当我告诉意大利人，我来自俄罗斯时，我遇到了很多有趣的反应。但过了几年，就不再有趣了，只会让你为人们的无知感到难过。发生在我身上最糟糕的情况是在机场的护照检查处，官员告诉我不可能是俄罗斯人，我的护照是假的

I am old enough to be your grandfather so, if I may, please let me offer a small piece of advice: don't tell people that you are Korean or Japanese when you are tired and don't want to explain that you're Russian.  It might lead to situations which are even MORE complicated for you and, worse yet, it might lead to a situation where people do not believe you when you say you are Russian or do not believe you if you say something else.   Try to find a way of simply saying you're Russian in passing, without letting any kind of conversation start up if you don't want to explain.  Maybe say it undramatically and use your body language to prevent an unwanted conversation from starting up, or find some other way that works for you.

我的年龄足以当你的祖父了，所以，如果可以的话，请允许我给你一个小小的建议：当你累了，不想解释你是俄罗斯人的时候，不要告诉别人你是韩国人或日本人。这可能会导致对你来说更复杂的情况，更糟糕的是，这可能会导致人们不相信你是俄罗斯人，或者如果你说别的事情，别人也不相信你。试着找到一种简单的方式，顺便说出你是俄罗斯人，如果你不想解释，不要让对话开始。也许你可以低调地说出来，用你的肢体语言来阻止一场不想要的对话，或者找到其他适合你的方式。

I'm an African with a healthy obsession with Sakha and the city of Yakutsk and its people. Russia is a truly multiethnic country with a fascinating history. May Allah watch over Russia and may God bless its people.

我是一个非洲人，很喜欢萨哈、雅库茨克城及其人民。俄罗斯是一个真正的多民族国家，有着迷人的历史。愿真主保佑俄罗斯，愿上帝保佑俄罗斯人民。

I always thought it was common knowledge that a lot of Eastern Russia had a large "Asian" population. I'm surprised that people are surprised by this. Love to hear your perspectives, but yeah that's honestly surprising that more people don't know this

我一直认为俄罗斯东部有很多“亚洲”人口，这是常识。我很惊讶的是有人会对此感到惊讶。很高兴听到你的观点，但说实话，更多人不知道这一点，这确实令人惊讶

I was born in a region where the Buryats live, and as a child I spent a lot of time among the Buryats.  So it will not be difficult for me to distinguish the Buryats from other Asian peoples, I can even sometimes distinguish the Buryats of the Irkutsk region from the Buryats of Aginsk.  And buuzy is the most delicious dish

我出生在布里亚特人居住的地区，小时候我在布里亚特人中间度过了很长一段时间。因此，对我来说，将布里亚特人与其他亚洲民族区分开来并不困难，我甚至有时可以将伊尔库茨克地区的布里亚特人与阿金斯克地区的布里亚特人区分开来。bubuzy是最美味的一道菜

My mother was born in Harbin of Russian parents. I understand your problems and your story. Though I was born in the US I identify with my mothers heritage and story more than my own. A multi-cultural identity brought by marriage I consider the greatest gift and legacy a son can carry.

我母亲出生在哈尔滨，父母是俄罗斯人。我理解你的问题和你的故事。虽然我出生在美国，但比起我自己，我更认同我母亲的传统和故事。我认为婚姻带来的多元文化认同是一个儿子所能拥有的最好的礼物和遗产。

As a Manchurian Chinese from the great North, I can totally relate to what you say about the mentality differences with (Han) Chinese. As China is huge with agricultural, nomadic and hunting cultures,  we northern peoples of China have to gone through a mentality adaptation process as well when we settle south.

You might find your Sakha mentality quite similar to Daur, Ewenki and  mentality (we Manchurians have been a military-focused people for too long so it kinda changed I think).

We are North Asian Native Peoples after all but history has unfortunately divided us apart.

作为一个中国北方人，我完全能理解你的与汉人的心态差异。由于中国幅员辽阔，拥有农业、游牧和狩猎文化，我们中国北方人在南方定居时也必须经历一个心理适应过程。

你可能会发现你的萨哈心态与达斡尔人、鄂温克人和心态非常相似(我们满洲人长期以来一直以军事为中心，所以我认为这有点改变了)。

我们毕竟是北亚原住民，但不幸的是，历史把我们分开了。

I am a college professor in Canada. I once had an Asian-looking student with a Russian first name and a Korean last name. Being a history buff, I immediately knew she must be the descendant of Koryo-saram (Soviet-Koreans). And I was right. The really interesting thing is, when she realized that there was a Lithuanian student in the very same class, she started conversing with him in Russian. Their classmates around them were really baffled by what's going on.

我是加拿大的一名大学教授。我曾经有一个长得像亚洲人的学生，他的名字是俄罗斯的，姓是韩国的。作为一个历史迷，我立刻知道她一定是高丽人(苏联朝鲜人)的后裔。我猜对的。真正有趣的是，当她发现班上有一个立陶宛学生时，她开始用俄语和他交谈。他们周围的同学对此感到很困惑。

I am from Tatarstan and moved to Belarus last year. I am not Tatar, with pretty much European appearance. When some people find out where I came from, they get surprised and say they thought I was from Russia. But what's more fun is that I have to explain at post offices that Tatarstan is in Russia almost every single time I send something to my family.

我来自鞑靼斯坦，去年搬到了白俄罗斯。我不是鞑靼人，长得很像欧洲人。当一些人发现我来自哪里时，他们很惊讶，说以为我来自俄罗斯。但更有趣的是，几乎每次我给家人寄东西时，我都要在邮局解释鞑靼斯坦在俄罗斯。

I went to university in Miami and I met so many people from Central Asia - Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Many of them, specially the Kazakhs and Kyrgyz, had predominant East Asian features. If you told me they were Chinese or even Korean, I would have believed it.

我在迈阿密上的大学，遇到了很多来自中亚的人——哈萨克斯坦、乌兹别克斯坦和吉尔吉斯斯坦。他们中的许多人，特别是哈萨克人和吉尔吉斯人，具有明显的东亚特征。如果你告诉我他们是中国人，甚至是韩国人，我会相信的。

The more I hear about it, the more I learn that Russia is an absolutely fascinating culturally diverse country, probably more so than any other country in the world. And except for culture and traditions, Russian are so much like other peoples from around the world, unlike the stereotype some in the west like to portray them as

我听到的越多，就越了解到俄罗斯是一个绝对迷人的文化多样化的国家，可能比世界上任何其他国家都多元化。除了文化和传统之外，俄罗斯人与世界各地的其他民族非常相似，不像西方一些人喜欢把他们描绘成的刻板印象

Hi Kiun! Thanks for sharing about your experience in China and your life in Yakutia. I was born in Brazil and I have a Japanese background. When I was in HK and Korea people didn’t believe I was Brazilian so it was easy to say I was Japanese. I also have a mix of Brazilian and Japanese mentality and also find myself kinda unique…. Have a great time in China!

感谢你分享在中国的经历和你在雅库特的生活。我出生在巴西，有日本背景。当我在中国香港和韩国的时候，人们不相信我是巴西人，所以很容易说我是日本人。我也有巴西和日本的混合心态，也发现自己有点独特....祝你在中国玩得愉快!

When I visited Shengyang in NE China, the upscale hotel had a beautiful blonde girl working as a greeter, manager. I thought she was American and spoke with her. She spoke perfect American English and mentioned she was from Russia.  The world even in NE China is becoming more international.  Hopefully the world can continue to grow in peace. Down with the western concept of continuing colonialism into the 21st century.

我去中国东北的沈阳时，一家高档酒店有一位漂亮的金发女郎担任迎宾经理。我以为她是美国人，就跟她说话了。她说一口完美的美式英语，并提到她来自俄罗斯。世界甚至是中国东北也变得越来越国际化了。希望世界能继续在和平中发展，打倒西方在21世纪继续殖民 主义的观念。

I am half Buryat, half Korean, but Russian is my first language and Tashkent is my hometown. I now live in USA and first few years were difficult, because nobody believed me. My favorite was the questions from Western Ukrainians, on how do i speak Russian. My answer was always: "Probably better than you!"

我有一半的布里亚特血统，一半韩国血统，但俄语是我的母语，塔什干是我的家乡。我现在住在美国，最初的几年很艰难，因为没有人相信我。我最喜欢的是来自西乌克兰人的问题，关于我如何说俄语。我的回答总是：“可能比你强!”

Despite the terrible cold :D, Yakutia is a beautiful country with a very rich culture.

We must preserve our mother tongue, traditions, culture and respect other cultures.

The ancestors of Hungarians were Huns and we are proud of our Asian origin and our Bashkir, Kazakh, Mongolian brothers... Greetings from Hungary :)

尽管气候寒冷得可怕，但雅库特是一个美丽的国家，有着非常丰富的文化。

我们必须保护自己的母语、传统和文化，并尊重其他文化。

匈牙利人的祖先是匈奴人，我们为自己的亚洲血统和巴什基尔、哈萨克、蒙古兄弟感到自豪……来自匈牙利的问候。

Many of us are not aware that the eastern part of Russia is practically North Asia; a term we don't hear much compared to other parts of Asia.

Thank you for showing us your culture and living place. The Summer festival with the multi-sport stone-lifting event is especially interesting!

我们中的许多人都没有意识到俄罗斯的东部实际上是北亚，与亚洲其他地区相比，我们很少听到这个词。谢谢你向我们展示了你的文化和居住地。夏季的掇石比赛尤其有趣!

Hi Kiun, Thanks for introducing us to the Yakutian life and culture! It's both interesting and inspiring at the same time. I don't think I would survive 1 day in that type of cold but would still like to consider visiting as a tourist :)

你好，Kiun，谢谢你向我们介绍雅库特人的生活和文化！这既有趣又鼓舞人心。在那种寒冷的环境下，我可能扛不过一天，但我仍然愿意考虑以游客的身份去参观。

Borders are man made. A language/tribe/culture etc doesn't begin/ end where the border begins/ends. Sometimes borders were drawn up the way there were, because of colonization other times, because of wars and various other reasons. Especially a country as big as Russia that spans over so many timezones and land, it's obvious that not everyone will look the same. Borders are man made, just keep that in mind. What bothers me more are the Russians who won't believe her. Don't they learn about their own country and it's people?!

边界是人为划定的。一种语言、部落和文化等并不以边界的开始和结束为开始和结束。有时边界是这样划定的，因为殖民，因为战争和其他各种原因。尤其是像俄罗斯这么大的国家，跨越了这么多时区和地域，很明显不是每个人看起来都一样。边界是人为划定的，请记住这一点。更让我担心的是那些不相信她的俄罗斯人。难道他们不了解自己的国家和人民吗?

I'm glad that you embrace your ethnicity and are proud of it. I'm from the Philippines who moved to America 20 years ago and now married to a beautiful and loving Russian woman. I'm proud of my ancestry and she is too. There's no place like home where you are treated as family and not a second class citizen

很高兴你能接受自己的种族，并为此感到自豪。我来自菲律宾，20年前移居美国，现在娶了一位美丽可爱的俄罗斯女人。我为我的祖先感到骄傲，她也是。没有比家更好的地方了，在这里你被当作家人，而不是二等公民

Thats 'really funny. We Slovaks, a small heart of Europe, we truly understand what you mean, coz we had many wars and armies ongoing through our territory, so we got really good mix in our genes. F.e. my ancestors are from Poland, Italy (father's side) and Hungarian, Russia (mother's side) and Yeah, Yakuts is really harsh area, i saw some vids about its winters :) Warm greetings from Slovakia <3

那真的很有趣。我们斯洛伐克是欧洲的一个小心脏，我们真的理解你的意思，因为我们的领土上有很多战争和军队，所以我们的基因组合得很好。我的祖先来自波兰、意大利(父亲一方)、匈牙利、俄罗斯(母亲一方)，是的，雅库特是一个气候非常严酷的地区，我看过一些关于那里冬天的视频。来自斯洛伐克的温暖问候

The feeling of being "a foreigner in your own country" really hits home for me. I'm a half Chinese half Iranian who lives in China and often I'll get asked if I'm a Chinese ethnic minority (mostly Uyghur or Mongol) when they hear me speaking native-sounding Chinese. If it weren't for the fact that mixed-races are common knowledge, I'd also have a hard time explaining myself.

“在自己的国家被当成外国人”的感觉对我来说真的很深刻。我有一半中国血统，一半伊朗血统，我住在中国，当他们听到我说地道的汉语时，经常会问我是不是中国的少数族群。我也很难解释清楚。

onepartofone

We don't choose who we get born as, we can only choose what sort of person you become.  Russia is a place for many peoples where they live together in unity.

我们不能选择生下来是什么样的人，我们只能选择成为什么样的人。俄罗斯是一个许多民族团结生活在一起的地方。

I'm a Japanese born in Brazil, and when I lived in China and people there asked where I'm from, everytime I said "Brazil" they were like "huh?" Then I explained that I'm FROM Brazil but ethnicaly I'm Japanese. When I was in college in Japan I had 2 friends from Kazakhstan who looked Asian but speak Russian when we were with our Russian friend. And I love this diversity!

我是一个出生在巴西的日本人，当我住在中国的时候，那里的人问我来自哪里，每次我说“巴西”，他们就会说“嗯?”然后我解释说我来自巴西，但在种族上我是日本人。当我在日本上大学时，我有两个来自哈萨克斯坦的朋友，他们看起来像亚洲人，但当我们和俄罗斯朋友在一起时，他们会说俄语。我喜欢这种多样性!

I’m from Japan but part of my family came from Russia. And it baffles my colleagues and classmates nuts when I start speaking Russian or when I start explaining my family tree.

我是日本人，但我家有一部分俄罗斯血统。当我开始说俄语或开始解释我的家谱时，我的同事和同学们都很困惑。

Russia, with a population of over 144 million, has over 270 languages. China, with a population of 1.4 billion, has 302 languages. But Papua New Guinea, with a population of over 10 million, takes the cake—it has about 840 languages.

俄罗斯人口超过1.44亿，有270多种语言。中国有14亿人口，有302种语言。但是拥有1000多万人口的巴布亚新几内亚独占鳌头，有大约840种语言。
